If you’re unfamiliar with RiffTrax, let us put it in layman’s terms. The trio is made up of the same members of MST3K, the cult TV show when the SyFy channel still had the term Sci-Fi in it. Now RiffTrax brings its ability to make B-movies, masterpieces, with the ultimate weed flick of all time.

RiffTrax Live: Reefer Madness is a celebration of ’30s propaganda paranoia and the comedy it inspires. So beware, squares!
